Ingredients

  • 1 bunch large asparagus
  • 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons coarse ground black pepper
  • 1/4 pound thinly sliced capicola ham, halved

Directions

Preheat grill to medium.

Trim asparagus approximately 1 1/2 inches from the bottoms. Slightly peel the asparagus from just below the tip to the end. Put into a large bowl and drizzle with olive oil. Season with salt and pepper and toss.

Wrap the ham tightly around each asparagus stalk. Put on the grill and cook the asparagus turning frequently until slightly charred, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer to a serving platter and serve.

    I really enjoyed this recipe. I cooked it for Labor Day! for my family and everyone loved it, including my 4 and 8 years old. I will cooked this again in about 2 weeks. Always, purchase large asparagus, the capicola brings the flavor out in the asparagus.

    I love this recipe. Totally delicious and super easy. I love the way Aaron puts his own spin on the food and makes even the simpliest recipes come out screaming with big flavor that makes me want more. Thanks for the open minded approach you bring to the table. Can't wait to see what you have in store for us today Aaron!
